Removing Calipers? Primarily front

[<--rYaN-->]

Im a total noob to this so would like a step by step guide if somebody could please tell me.

Want to remove my front calipers (and later rears) to use a drill with a wire brush on to clean them up for painting them red.

I\'ve read there are 2 bolts holding them on. All i can see is 2 tiny screws at the front, and 2 massive nuts at the back. Are they the ones??

I take it the brake pads wont just fall off if i remove the caliper and i wont have to fiddle with them in any way when putting them back on??

Also how do i go about stopping brake fluid leaking?? clamp the brake line?? Where is it??
If i do that will i have to bleed the brakes of anything when putting them back on??

Is it a simple case of 1) Undo Nuts, 2) CLamp brake line and undo (how?) and 3) sort of wiggle caliper till it comes off??

Pics would be appreciated for reference if possible!!!

Thanks very much :wave

If you disconnect any hydraulic line you will have to bleed. I  recommend you clean them in situ - I did and mine painted OK after cleaning with brake cleaner and brush.
